"Many environmentalists are realizing now that nuclear options are the best solution at the moment."

Is it? I am not terribly familiar with the process or safety concerns. I know Chernobyl and Three Mile Island scared the heck out of everyone. Chernobyl was a catastrophe even if they are now trying to downplay the effects. Yucca Mountain is another issue. What do we do with the byproduct of nuclear energy? Maybe until now nuclear power was too politically toxic to be considered?
